From the Desk of John Rourke – May 3rd, 2017

Couldn’t get to the “From the Desk of….” post yesterday. More had to be done than allotted time would allow thus prioritizing had to take place.

Not thrilled with then efforts to “drain the swamp” thus far. Certainly better than if HC had been elected. The most recent budget contained numerous spending initiatives which allowed Democrats to claim victory. With this single event combined with a major division in the Republican party, future budgets will continue to NOT be representative of the fiscal responsibility most of us were hoping for.

“I think we had a strategy and it worked,” Schumer said in an interview with The Washington Post. “Democrats and Republicans in the House and Senate were closer to one another than Republicans were to Donald Trump.”

How is it that with a Republican Senate, a Republican House, and a Republican President true progress cannot be made?

I’ve started listening to quite a few podcasts. Mark Goodwin over at PrepperRecon.com is my regular stop(which I am to be a guest soon). Another is the Survival Medicine Hour. Others I am still feeling out and seeing what I like. Any suggestions?

There are many reasons why so many love their Kindle and Amazon Fire tablets. One huge advantage is you could literally go years without every buying a book to read as there are tons of free eBooks available. Don’t have a Kindle or Fire? No problem. There are apps that can be installed on most any cell phone or computer for free. No excuses!

NOTE: If you see a free preparedness eBook that you’re interested in get it now. Prices change often and there is no way to tell how long the book will remain free. Before purchasing a free Kindle book on Amazon make certain the book is still free by making sure the price is $0.00. If it lists a price or says “read for free” or has a price for prime members the book is not free anymore.

– I’m trying really hard not…to jump to conclusions. Because it’s really easy to do with all the “fluff” going on. Especially, with the main stream media pushing out the littlest thing as a victory. So, if it’s what can be considered a victory in anyway at all. Their going to rub it in our faces to make it bigger than it seems. I’m really, really, really hoping Trump had so many other fires to deal with he didn’t just push this down the road.
Still better than hitlery, but I’m not happy. Let’s hope, (praying) that Mike Pence understands after his meeting with Rush.

– I think we have an even bigger issue that people don’t see as big right now, but the consequences/fall out is going to be huge. I started backing away from Fox news a while back when weird liberals like Geraldo start appearing on their show. But, it was still the main line to get our conservative views aired in any mass form. For example, Chris Kyle, standing against terrorist BLM, sharing Marcus Luttrel, sharing any massive conservative movement. Now that Bill Shine left Fox. Rupert Murdoch and his sons are slowing and literally choking conservative tv out. Where are we, the American People, going to get our conservative views into the light? The Blaze, with nut job Glen Beck? And he had to fight the FCC and bummer’s cronies to get an alternative main stream pay for channel news on air.

“Sean Hannity took to Twitter Thursday afternoon to warn of a “total end of the Fox News Channel as we know it” in the wake of a report that suggested Fox News co-president Bill Shine lacks support from the network’s top brass.”

*Sigh!*, we can only do so much, in one day. I also realize I can’t just sit on my duff doing nothing, but there is a big difference in worrying about things consistantly vs action. And there are to many things to worry about all this stuff.

Mathew 6:25-27
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?

Those Republicans better cover there back side when 2018 comes around! Unbelievable!
This budget started in Oct of 2016 when the other was still in office. Now this one is just for 5 months and then it starts all over again! They better get it right the next time or Trumps going to take a lot of more heat for not draining the swamp!

Trump was elected by the patriots of the country. He was saddled with Congress from the very beginning. The election of 2018 needs to clean out Congress!! They are the obstacle to progress in this country.

I know it may not matter but yesterday I wrote to all my congressmen telling them how disappointed I am and letting them know if they don’t get behind President Trump I will be voting for someone else in the next election Also wrote to the house speaker . Maybe if more of us wrote ,e-mail and called our congressmen and let them know how we fee the might come around . it would only take a few to swing things our way .

I send Faxes to my elected idiots at least weekly. There are a number of Conservative political sites you can join that will allow you to send the Faxes for free through their platforms. One that comes to mind at the moment is Numbers USA. Join them and others like them to try to turn this mess around.
